GOFERM YEAST NUTRIENT 1 OZ

Description

Go-Ferm® is a natural yeast rehydration nutrient con­taining a balance of micronutrients. It was developed to enhance kinetics and thereby potentially avoid problem fermentations. Suspend Go-Ferm in the rehydration wa­ter before adding the selected active dried yeast culture. The yeast soak up the valuable bio-available micronu­trients as they rehydrate. Infusing yeast with these es­sential nutrients arms them against ethanol toxicity and optimizes nutrient availability to the rehydrating yeast culture. The result is fermentations that finish stronger.

Rehydration with Go-Ferm is effective for helping the yeast survive the fermentation. If these micronutrients were added directly to the must, competitive microor­ganisms would use a significant amount of them and others would be chelated by polyphenols or inactivated by SO2. Do not use nutrients containing ammonia salts, such as DAP, during yeast rehydration – they are toxic to the yeast at high levels.
